http://issuu.com/tapspace/docs/the_travelers-sample?e=5632436/41117838/n/nThe Travelers is the title track of Michigan steel drum and and percussion composer Patrick Fitzgibbon’s debut solo album. Its extended form is meant to take listeners on a journey of contrasting rhythmic and harmonic ideas.
Two melodic motifs “travel” their way through different sections of the piece. There is also an extended jam section that breaks away from these motifs and takes a more improvisational approach. The rhythms heard throughout borrow components from styles such as songo, bolero, and calypso, as well as some mixed-meter ideas.
Packed with intricate harmonies, catchy rhythms, and recognizable themes, The Travelers will provide an engaging experience for listeners who appreciate all that the steel band art form can deliver!
This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
